This document discusses the three pillars that support modern finance systems: states, central banks, and markets. States provide essential services to support business growth, central banks monitor banks/credit and control inflation, and markets determine exchange rates and finance the economy. While the three pillars model is an oversimplification, different regions rely more on certain pillars - for example, Europe relies more on banks, the US more on markets, and China most heavily on markets. The document will examine case studies on bank finance and the subprime crisis.
